In 1992, Charles Bieler’s father, Philippe Bieler, founded Chateau Routas in Coteaux Varois a small appellation in the middle of Provence. Deep purple with a medium+ nose of black fruits, cedar and spice for this Grenache and Syrah blend. On the palate dry, medium+ acidity with flavors of black currants, blackberry and black pepper with notes of black pepper and oak. Medium finish, with soft ripe tannins, overall good balance. Drink now!

Excellent body. A little funk on the nose, spices, and earth. Great second bottle.

Cedar, saddle, and vanilla on the nose. Velvety smooth, with saddle and ripe berries. Smoky and silky. Amazing wine for $15 from Village Corner.

Beautiful blueberry and blackberry fruit, with lively acidity and a bit of oak on the back end. Good stuff.
